Column: How a self-taught San Diego software engineer won a ‘Black Voices’ grant from YouTube [The San Diego Union-Tribune]
When he looks back at his unconventional career path, the self-taught San Diego software engineer known for his “Jabrils” YouTube channel is happy to give credit to the people who helped him find his roundabout way.
At the top of the list is his mother, who bought him his first video games and didn’t give him grief when he stopped wanting to do anything else.
There were the people on the GameMaker forums , where the flow of information and advice helped Jabril who goes by his first name only create his first games while he was still in middle school.
